HELP!!! Need a Puppy???

It's really heart wrenching as this is such a growing problem with ALL shelters...I"m almost betting a lot of these cute puppies had been Christmas presents and then the owners couldn't keep them...have you though about getting in contact with Best Friends?....They're are out in Utah but they are usually phenomenal in taking in a lot of pets when no one else will--they've taken tons of dogs/puppies from puppy mills all over the country. Since you are close by to this place maybe you could call the shelter with this suggestion about getting in touch with Best Friends Here's there full contact page which has a phone number as well...If you want would you want me to at least email them and send them the link about the shelter??? http://www.bestfriends.org/aboutus/staffdepartments/index.cfm {Warning: This is NOT a referral link but a link to Best Friends Animal Sanctuary}

If I could I would, although I think that whoever takes one or 185 on needs to do it for the right reasons and not just a knee jerk reaction. Good on you LadyM for highlighting this cause.

Those little labs are certainly cute puppies, I already have old coots (12 1/2 yrs and 10 yrs) and it would not be fair to them to bring in a young pooch plus I can not afford another dog, actually we can't afford the ones we have but refuse to give them up. I work about 5 hours OT every week just to cover their food and medical bills but they belong to us and will always be ours.

I think it is a good thing you are trying to do. I have my two dogs and two cats I think that is enough pets for my husband and I.

Hi LadyM...if only I could take them all in I would but can't as I have two dogs of my own and live in the UK..I really do hope you find or have found somewhere for these innocent adorable puppies...hugs littleowl

I would love to but I'm not able to have one where I live.

hi lady marissa! oh that is sooo nice of you. anyway, we are too far off from you. hehehe but that is a nice effort that you are doing. i hope you will find a new home for that puppy soon. :-) take care always and God bless you! have a happy weekend! :-)

I wish I could help, if I lived somewhere else I would adopt one, poor little puppies.

I wish I lived closer to there. I would be all over it! :(

Yiks. Poor puppies. I thought we had it bad here. I frequently foster puppies so that they don't get sick in the local pound.

HI LadyMarissa: That just breaks my heart to hear of this; I wish I had extra money to lend a helping hand with food, and or adopt one of them; I can't do either; I struggle to take care of my three cats and two dogs; Makes me wonder though how much of this is going on all over the world now? Probably more than I would like to know; Its so sad, so very sad; I hope they all find homes but I doubt that happens; Truly heart breaking;
